SHERIDAN COUNTY EQIP PROGRAMSome documents require How EQIP is being implemented in the County:The Sheridan County Local Work
Group has identified the following natural resource concerns as top priority:
1. Water Conservation Supports National Priorities of
conservation of ground & surface water resources, reduction of nonpoint
source pollutants, and reduction in soil erosion and sedimentation. Improvements
in irrigation efficiency, and cost per acre will be among the key local factors
considered.
2. Grazinglands Supports National Priorities of reduction of nonpoint source pollutants, reduction in soil erosion and sedimentation, and promotion of at-risk species habitat recovery. Estimated percent improvement in range condition, planned rest/recovery time, and riparian habitat improvement will be among the key local factors considered. 3. Livestock Waste Management Supports National Priority of
reduction of nonpoint source pollutants. Location relative to surface water,
estimated improvement in runoff condition, and location relative to impaired
waterbodies will be among the key factors considered.
Applications under this concern are prioritized at the State level.
4. Erosion Control & Irrigation Infrastructure Improvements Supports National Priorities of
reduction of nonpoint source pollutants, reduction in soil erosion and
sedimentation, assisting producer compliance with Federal & State
environmental laws, and sustaining food & fiber production.
Estimated annual soil loss, downstream water quality, safety, and hazard
of economic damage will be among the key local factors considered.
5. Stream Channel Restoration Supports National Priorities of
reduction of nonpoint source pollutants, reduction in soil erosion and
sedimentation, and promotion of at-risk species habitat recovery.
Impact on overall stream stability, estimated annual soil loss, and
riparian buffer size & management will be among the key local factors
considered.
Refer to Ranking Worksheets for
more detail on key local factors. Applications in all resource concerns
will be prioritized based on National and Local resource priorities, ability to
address multiple resource concerns, cost-effectiveness, and supporting
management.
